JOIST Innovation Park is pleased to announce its unique and interactive participation at the Athens Science Festival 2024 as a workshop organizer for children, strengthening its commitment to combining creativity with education. The festival’s theme, “Tales of Change,” reflects the dynamic mix of learning methods for which JOIST is renowned.
This year, the Athens Science Festival—a vibrant celebration of science and innovation—marks its 10th anniversary. It takes place from 16 to 21 April at Technopolis of the Municipality of Athens. JOIST Innovation Park presents its innovative educational technologies through an exciting workshop entitled “Play & Program with DuckyCode“.
JOIST’s “Play & Learn” instructors, Yannis and Maria, invite children to learn programming principles in a fun and interactive way. Guided by JOIST Innovation Park’s revolutionary edutainment approach, children can experience hands-on learning with DuckyCode robots. These friendly robotic companions can be programmed using tactile magnetic commands in graphical environments on computers and mobile devices, embodying the JOIST spirit that education is most effective when it is enjoyable.
DuckyCode, an award-winning programming system, results from research and is presented to the public exclusively by JOIST Innovation Park. The system is an evolution of CubesCoding and RoboTiles, offering children a fun introduction to programming through collaboration and interactive play.
JOIST Innovation Park’s participation in the Athens Science Festival promises to empower tomorrow’s scientists and innovators and guarantee an unforgettable experience where everyone can witness “Tales of Change” in education and technology.
Don’t miss the opportunity to combine play and learning at the Athens Science Festival with JOIST Innovation Park.
